Reminds me of high school myself, 2 different teachers, both female, one an English teacher the other a French teacher.
The English teacher was very bitchy and emotional to the point that the class itself was antagonistic back and made her cry a few times.
The French teacher, she was strict, no nonsense but fair with what she told or punished you for that it developed a mutual respect. How much of a respect, there was a day in which she was feeling ill stuck at work and couldn't do much, the class (I was a part of it) stayed quiet and did quiet study ON THEIR OWN initiative! This was teenagers around 11-13! Kids don't need feelings and emotional understanding in schools, they need a firm but fair hand that puts them in place when they overstep.
